Florida Lakes Symphony Orchestra
Celebrates The Passions of Music with New Concert Performances
The Florida Lakes Symphony Orchestra is ready to launch into 2024 with a series of extraordinary concert performances. With about 50 musicians from Lake County and all over the world, their musical talents are brought right here to you each year.
January 18 & 19 Concerts: This musical performance was balanced with tender sound delights in the “From Russia with Love” concert presented by the Florida Lakes Symphony Orchestra. They kicked this concert off with “Trepak” from Tschaikowsky, before transitioning quickly into the most romantic and technically challenging of Tschaikowsky’s many works. The internationally renowned Tschaikowsky Violin Concerto was performed by FLSO’s Concert Master, Konstantin Dimitrov. The second half of this program included “Ruslan & Ludmilla,” tenderness with Rachmaninov’s “Vocalise” performed by vocalist Aleksandra Vargas, and with some humor from “Fiddler on the Roof with Carl Topilow.” All of this was presented under the baton of famed clarinetist and conductor of the Cleveland Pops, Carl Topilow, sojourning with the FLSO as Principal Guest Conductor.
February 15 & 16 2024 Concerts: Get ready to celebrate Valentine’s week for a night of Valentine’s love with your sweetheart. Sharing just a small sneak peek, famed Conductor Paul Hostetter will join the Florida Lakes Symphony Orchestra for their ‘Latin Valentine Concerts.” February will include a whirlwind of romantic Latin rhythm and sounds that will thrill the audiences when the FLSO breaks into motion with “La Bamba,” “Carmen,” “El Amor Brujo / Burning Love,” “Cinema Paradiso,” “O Sole Mio,” “Don’t Cry for Me Argentina,” “Zigeunerweisen,” “Tico, Tico” and more, with singers Sasha Vargas and Marco Romano as well as with orchestra soloists Konstantin Dimitrov and Cesar Rangel.
